Crazy stone

It is said that 1.7 million years ago, the primitive ancestors already used fire, in addition to eating raw food and occasionally eating barbecue, the brain can quickly evolve and think.

For millions of years, the ancestors were often killed by the falling stones on the mountain, and the ancestors were routinely onlookers and grinning and crying.

Until one day, an ancestor was unfortunately stoned and collapsed. Some of the ancestors who could think began to wonder: Why did this stone hit so accurately? Can it be smashed so hard?

Therefore, they repeatedly threw stones from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, smashing and injuring countless animals and animals, and the animals began to fear stones from that time on, which shows that the war between man and beast was very fierce at that time.

The ancestors found that the stones in their hands are the best to use, the lethality with edges and corners is large, the effect of smashing together is better than that of one person, and squinting can be smashed more accurately... But where to find so many stones to take advantage of?

One day, two ancestors held a dry frame of stones, and the two stones collided with one and shattered into small stones with edges. Inspired ancestors began to smash stones all day long, even if they smashed their hands and feet in pain and screamed, so they had stone axes, stone rust, stone chisels, stone knives, stone inlays, stone clusters and other products, cutting, smashing, cutting, shooting and so on. The ancestors also had a preliminary division of labor, with strong men hunting with stones, well-behaved women smashing nuts with stones, slow-moving old men cutting prey with stones, and specialized archery blinded by wild beasts.

After a million years of smashing stones, the primitive ancestors finally learned to grind stones, and human beings entered the Neolithic from the Paleolithic Age. 700,000 years ago, the brave ancestors carried the stones in their hands, carefully walked out of the cave during the day, and after an earth-shattering fierce battle with the saber-toothed tiger and the Mei's rhinoceros, the animals were smashed by the stones and their heads were broken and bloodied, and they screamed and retreated to the mountains or caves. The ancestors occupied the plains and settled down, and primitive villages appeared in Xi'an Banpo Village, Yuyao Hemudu and other places. The animals were forced to switch to nocturnal activities. The ancestors held crazy stones all the way through thorns and thorns, cursed tigers and cattle, and walked all over the North China Plain, guanzhong plain, Jianghan Plain, Jianghuai Plain...

Time entered 2717 BC, the great Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor was born. At that time, the princes invaded and abused the people and the Shennong clan was enlisted. The Yellow Emperor did not enjoy it, and the princes were invited to follow. The Soldiers of the Yellow Emperor made frequent surprise moves, some people tied stones to wooden sticks with ropes to make battle axes, and some people tied stones with bamboo contempt to make meteor hammers that could be thrown repeatedly... The Yellow Emperor led the people to be invincible and invincible. The use of various stone weapons expanded the radius of the ancestors' battles, and the Yellow Emperor eventually defeated other tribes, and even the tribes of Siberia recognized them as descendants of the Yellow Emperor.

In the wilderness, after millions of years of exploration, the ancestors went from night to day, from caves to plains, using stones to climb from the bottom of the food chain to the top, relying on the use of stones and other tools to change from prey to the master of the biological world.

In order to remember this arduous time, our nation has developed the tradition of le shi memories, murals, stone carvings, inscriptions, etc., which have become an important evidence for studying and recalling our long and splendid culture.
